...and we're hiring! Want to come work at Yahoo? Sunnyvale office :)

I'm not on the market, but I've not seen any change in the number of recruiters contacting me. A pretty weak signal for sure, but it's something.

When you say "in the east bay" that's confusing to me. Are you only considering companies with an East Bay office? I live in the East Bay and don't make any secret of it, but I get recruiters contacting me from all over the SF Bay Area (and outside of it too, for that matter). Would you not work in SF if someone wanted to hire you there?
